2017 . Witness is the highly anticipated follow-up to Benjamin Booker's critically acclaimed self-titled debut album. The album's ten original tracks were all written by Booker, produced by Sam Cohen (Kevin Morby) and mixed by Shawn Everett (Alabama Shakes), and the title track features a guest vocal from Mavis Staples. 'I wanted to make a record about the things in my life I never wanted to talk about. It's a record about self-exploration, about learning to love yourself and opening yourself up to love others, about choosing the kind of person you want to be, about confronting death and appreciating life. Really it's about trying to take control from the perspective of someone who has come very close on several occasions to losing ALL control.' - Benjamin Booker.

In the vibrant world of Freddy Fender, the lines between heartbreak and healing blur almost to one. His music flows as freely as the Rio Grande, resonating with the rich history of his life and experiences. Each note tells stories of love, loss, and resilience, while every strum of his guitar invites transformation. From the pain of yesterday comes the melody of hope for tomorrow. In his songs, the bittersweet beauty of the Mexican-American experience creates a profound connection that transcends language and culture. Through his artistry, the spirit of Tex-Mex music becomes not just a sound but a journey of the soul.
